Gilles Deleuze
“History is made only by those who oppose history (not by those who insert themselves into it, or even reshape it).”
Gilles Deleuze, Félix Guattari, A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia

Félix Guattari
“We cannot live outside our bodies, our friends, some sort of human cluster, and at the same time, we are bursting out of this situation. The question which poses itself then is one of the conditions which allow the acceptance of the other, the acceptance of a subjective pluralism. It is a matter not only of tolerating another group, another ethnicity, another sex, but also of a desire for dissensus, otherness, difference. Accepting otherness is a question not so much of right as of desire. This acceptance is possible precisely on the condition of assuming the multiplicity within oneself.”
Félix Guattari, The Guattari Reader

Joshua Clover
“It is in this regard that the riot is the sign of a situation that must in the end absolutize itself. Not because of some wild and affective nature of riot, though those who have had such experiences know that this is an astonishing force, but because of the still unfolding and still deteriorating situation in which it finds itself. Riot prime is not a demand but a civil war.

We have, then, something like a last contradiction. On the one hand, the riot must absolutize itself, move toward a self-reproduction beyond wage and market, toward the social arrangement that we define as the commune, always a civil war. On the other hand, the riot is entangled both internally and externally with the police function that seems
a blockage to any such absolutization. This contradiction offers some ways to think about the riots, rebellions, and uprisings of the years since the global market collapse of 2008—the historical particulars they embody, the failures they bear, the future they suggest.”
Joshua Clover, Riot. Strike. Riot: The New Era of Uprisings

Audre Lorde
“What are the words you do not yet have? What do you need to say? What are the tyrannies you swallow day by day and attempt to make your own, until you will sicken and die of them, still in silence.”
Audre Lorde, Sister Outsider: Essays and Speeches

Simone Weil
“To love purely is to consent to distance, it is to adore the distance between ourselves and that which we love.”
Simone Weil, Gravity and Grace
